The average American household has dozens of family photographs on the stairway wall, as I understand it.
So, what do you people have up? Do you fit the average American stereotype?
Random splattered food particles, dark spots where furniture used to lean against, cobwebs.
My living room has family photos. XD
My room has several anime posters hanging up and a picture of my late great dog, Blackie.
:)
Rugs, antique guns, old china, maps, photographs of family and friends, some art pieces, lots of horseshoes, display cases
Display cases? Like glass cabinets? If so, I forgot to mention mine, I figured it wouldn't fit the "wall" criteria!!
Actually, if those count, I forgot the magnet boards with "to do" notes, vintage spice rack, magnet knives thingy in the kitchen, and the fridge magnets.
What's this vintage spice rack like?
I have a fuck tonne of spices which I use regularly and I just keep them in baskets. It's convenient but I would prefer a spice rack. I haven't seen one that I like yet, so I'm looking for ideas
It's this one:

Except I've cleaned out the original bottles and replaced the spices in them. I kept the oldish looking labels and caps in order to keep it vintage looking.
I figured they counted as they are hung on the walls lol. My girlfriend keeps her petrified wood and tree rings in them
A painting I made for my bf, Some shelves for painting supplies, Two metal flowers, Mirror, Cross, Dreamcatcher, Catscratcher, Office thingy. Zero photographs.
I haven't personally been to anybody's house and seen the stereotypical Homegoods commercial of photos up a staircase. The most I've seen is sometimes when I'm in an office the person behind the desk has a frame or two staring at em.
In my room, I have the US Quarter Map framed hanging above my bedpost, one band poster (trivium), a WWII Airplane poster, and two giant art sketches done by my best friend.
I have stuffed animals and some my little pony dolls decorating my place. If I ever get a house of my own I intend on getting 3 maniguens, one in a old dive suit, one in some medieval armor and another in a USSR soldiers uniform complete with memborilla
A painting of the Friends cast, this one (https://www.girlsaskguys.com/img/820465). A Lucky Eye. Two wooden tribal masks. A large mirror. And a picture of the Titanic.
Smudges where I've squished mosquitoes and felt too satisfied at finally having swatted the bugger that I didn't want to clean it up straight away. I'm mildly allergic to mosquito bites, so I suffer by them.
It's hard to put anything on my wall because it's newly plastered, and my landlord wouldn't be best pleased if I started drilling holes in it.
Dream catcher, poster and a wall clock.
I'm pretty basic so i feel if i have too much decorative items on my walls, i feel crowded. I probably wouldn't even fit the American stereotypes anyway since I'm not American.
My family has a bunch of family photos hanging up on the wall, but my dad and I don't like it.
I, however, have a bunch of knives, swords, and battle axes all over my wall. \m/
I have a few paintings on my walls, a navy-themed clock that looks like a ships wheel in the kitchen, an actual solid wood, lacquered ship's wheel my dad made and a ship knots display (also gift from my dad).
On shelves I have a few 1:18 diecast model cars, on top of the bookcase in the living room I have 1/72 scale models of Concorde and the SR-71 Blackbird - my two favorite airplanes.
On top of the closet in my bedroom I have a 1 meter Lego model of an aircraft carrier (recently bought and finished building right before the holidays) XD
Not very feng shui, or modern minimalist decor, but I like it.
My boomerang collection.
A ski poster of powder snow in Colorado.
Float plane pictures from Alaska.
White sand beach poster from the Caribbean.
A wine country map of Napa and Sonoma valleys in California.
And a beautiful watercolor of a Chinese boat from Hong Kong.
I have not put anything on the wall from my travels to Switzerland, Spain, England, Sweden, Hawaii, or New Zealand. Just didn't find any memorabilia that looked interesting enough while I was there.
Several family photos, a Spock print, Monet Print, a big metal beer cap that reads “Busch Light Draft”, a couple racks with hats, and a huge mirror outlined with decorative plates.
I have nothing on my walls. I like the minimalist approach to my surroundings. It makes for a better Feng Shui environment that keeps my chi elevated.
A few nice watercolours I've accumulated over the years, and some watercolour-like pictures that I created long ago from photographs of Italy using image editing software.
Even though I was born in the USA and grew up there, I've never understood the tradition of putting loads of framed photos of family members on the walls. Maybe I'm just more capable of remembering what the people in my family look like than the typical American.
A few pictures from the 80's, plus some framed pantyhose ads from the 70's and 80's.
What I want eventually is a framed poster called "Daydreams" by Carol Lawson. We had one in the living room when I was a kid, just kind of a nostalgic thing.
Ha! Nope. We just have a few paintings and artwork from friends that we have acquired over the years.
Clocks, posters, calendars, formulas for physics, timetable sheet(that is actually blank) and some stickers
I've got like over a dozen mirrors - sue me! - and tons of framed artsy posters from my trips and the theater plays I've been in. Also a lot of maps (mostly world maps), And a NJ 80's license plate.
Oh, and a couple pictures of myself in plays, a magnetic dartboard, and little trinkets hanging on the doors.
Also a few clocks, but only one of them is a working one.
"I've got like over a dozen mirrors - sue me!"
I have contacted my attorney on this matter and if you do not remove the mirrors, we are prepared to file litigation.
